Fireball Run

It’s the Cannonball Run, only no high-speed beer smuggling, and it’s for a good cause. A field of drivers in custom and exotic cars drove cross-country this summer to raise awareness for missing children. Their 3,500-mile, Orlando-to-L.A. drive helped to locate nearly 40 missing children. Signs with pictures of the missing children were posted on the cars and given to spectators along the way, including during this Baton Rouge pit stop (pictured) in late September.
